it just arrived this morning. Took forever to get the case open. I don't think it has ever been opened. since 1989! Looks all original inside quantum 40Setc
The good -
Boots to Cursor and ?
Screen looks pretty bright / no burn in
Start up chime!
Battery did not explode! I removed it.
The caps do not appear to be leaky as far as I can see at the moment.
The bad -
Super dusty dirty, and the case is very yellowed.
Corrosion on certain points on the underside of the board?
What is the best way to clean at this point. I was thinking I would remove the ram and ROM chips and soak in 91% alcohol. I know some use soap and water.
Thanks for your help.
